Veres Ildikó - Hiány and létteljesség - Fejezetek a Hungarian filozófia history

In the thematic line of the Hungarian philosophical history, the author interprets the questions and the possible answers regarding the completeness of human existence and the issues of lack coherently connected with it by hermeneutic analysis and comparative analysis of various texts. In the European philosophical tradition, these problem areas were thematized in individual dominant philosophies from Aristotle to Sartre. The two key concepts present in the demand for universality of philosophical discourses led to the construction of philosophical systems, on the one hand, and on the other hand, they occupied a significant position in the concept of prominent figures of Hungarian philosophy, for example, in existential philosophies.

In the two-part book, the author interprets the absence and completeness in the concepts centered on the Absolute (Károly Böhm, Béla Varga, Sándor Makkai, Béla Brandenstein) and in the ideas of non-system thinkers (József Révay, Béla Hamvas, István V. Király). connections.

In addition to the novelty of the thematic approach, the author combines the methodology of traditional philosophy history writing with the hermeneutic-comparative method.
